St James Plantation includes a beautiful marina on the Inter Coastal Waterway. We have 155 wet slips from 30 t0 50 feet in length. For the smaller boats we have 300 inside dry slips. With just a phone call you can have your boat picked up in the dry storage and launched and ready. When you are finished, they will pick up your boat, flush the engines, pressure the outside of your boat and put it back in the boat storage building.

This marina is the most secure of all the local marinas in case of nasty weather. We have the lowest fuel prices and the best marina staff of all the local marinas, There is a very nice restaurant on site, open from 7am till 10 pm.

If you like to just cruise, Myrtle Beach is just a little south and Wrightsville Beach, Wilmington and Baldhead Island are just a little ride north. There are several places to eat with boat docks in both directions, also. If you are a fisherman, the inshore fishing for sea trout, red fish and flounder is excellent and all along the waterway and branch streams. If you prefer off shore fishing, there are exits into the ocean close by. We managed to catch one sailfish and eleven king fish just this past week.

Having your own boat very close to your home is an ideal set up. Come take a look and maybe even a scenic boat ride with me.

In St James, you can buy a house like this one above on the golf course for around $500,000 or like the one below on a nice lake for around $400,000. Taxes between $2,000 and $2,500 per year. Sell your house up north for $800,000 and put the balance in your savings to help you enjoy life in St James. You can mimic the actions of Mary and I and buy a house on the marina and go fishing. The weather down here is amazing. We do not get hardly a trace of snow, sell all of your snow shovels and big coats behind and stock up on beach chairs, towels, and a good umbrella! There are many year-round activities in the area. Recently a flotilla just happened less than 30 minutes away. Christmas parades are almost weekly because each town has their own. Little markets pop up here and there and the locals sell their goods. Buying a home in St.James is one of the best investments, we have ever made!

Just got back from a fishing trip to Cabo San Lucas and it was super We managed to catch fourteen of these striped marlin. All of them were released unharmed. Cabo is a beautiful place and a great place to fish. What a week?

If you like shrimp, it is easy to get fresh shrimp right off the boat. There are numerous shrimp boats based very close by and they pass St James both coming and going. Shrimp and grits is a favorite local dish and a favorite of mine. $5.50 a pound for the large size, at the local fish market, or right off the boat.
